Discourses on Various Subjects (Classic Reprint)
impression à la demandeVendeur : Forgotten Books, London, Royaume-Uni
Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of sermons preached by Balguy before the University of Cambridge in the 18th century. It is a work of philosophy and theodicy, in which the author seeks to reconcile the existence of the problem of evil with the idea of a benevolent and omnipotent God. He begins by examining the vanity of our pursuits after knowledge, arguing that the greatest pleasure we can find is in the pursuit of knowledge for its own sake, rather than for worldly gain or social status. He then explores the vexing question of the existence of suffering in the world, arguing that it is a necessary part of our moral development. Finally, he concludes by discussing the importance of religion in our lives, arguing that it is the only thing that can truly give us happiness and meaning. This book is a valuable resource for anyone who is interested in the philosophy of religion and theodicy. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
